Historical findings have demonstrated the processing of glass in this area since the time of the Celts, two thousand years ago, at the beginning of the Christian calendar, although the first written records and evidence are from the 60s to the tenth century.

The first industrial production of glass by glass factories in the Bohemia region dates back to the turn of the 13th and 14th century, when the first glass factories were formed. These were the strategic regions that began to build in the border areas untouched Ore, Jizera, Lusatian Mountains, Giant Mountains, Forest Maintains and Moravia.
